Overhaul of WEBER #1 (The original blog was written on 25th Aug. 2007)



I have tried to start the overhaul of WEBER carbs.  
At first I removed the WEBER carbs from the engine based on the workshop manual.


I removed the air cleaner box, choke cable, throttle linkage and fuel hoses … so far it was fine.

By the way, I read the articles that the wrench was grinded to make it thinner in order to remove the WEBER carbs on some magazines.  Or the offset wrench may be necessary…well, what should I do?

However , before repairing the holed

Clutch master cylinder overhaul #4

The overhaul of the clutch master cylinder , which I succeeded in the removal and repair of the piston with solder ( probably ), has been still continuing.  The master cylinder was disassembled and all parts were cleaned.  The condition of each part was not bad. In the last week the cylinder and rod were painted. Assembly started.  I checked the condition of the rubber parts originally used comparing with ones of the repair kit.  And I decided to use the original ones because the rubber was not deteriorated yet and the quality looked better than the repair kit ’ s one. Always the assembly is fast although I always struggled with the disassembly. Before After The overhauled master cylinder could be operated smoothly.  And I believe the appearance also became cleaner. ( My original blog was written on 26th Jul. 2009 )
